E!’S HIT DRAMA SERIES “THE ROYALS” RETURNS FOR AN EVEN MORE SEXY, SOAPY AND SCANDALOUS SEASON TWO

Elizabeth Hurley, William Moseley, Alexandra Park, Jake Maskall, Tom Austen, and Oliver Milburn Reign Supreme When Season Two Premieres Sunday, November 15 at 10pm ET/PT

Los Angeles, CA, October 19, 2015 – E!’s breakout first original scripted drama series “The Royals,” co-produced by Lionsgate and Universal Cable Productions, is back for a fiery second season. Returning cast members include Elizabeth Hurley as the cunning Queen Helena, William Moseley as the rancorous Prince Liam, Alexandra Park as an uncontrollable Princess Eleanor, Tom Austen as the scorned bodyguard Jasper Frost, Oliver Milburn as the dutiful head of the Royal security, and Jake Maskall as the newly-crowned King Cyrus. Additionally, Dame Joan Collins guest stars in four episodes as the Grand Duchess of Oxford. The series, which ranks as one of 2015’s top new scripted cable series, is executive produced, written and directed by Mark Schwahn (“One Tree Hill”), and executive produced by Brian Robbins and Joe Davola (“One Tree Hill,” “Smallville”). Season two of “The Royals” premieres Sunday, November 15 at 10pm ET/PT on E!

The second season picks up eight weeks after the tragic murder of King Simon (Vincent Regan) by an unknown assailant. Cyrus, Simon’s arrogant brother, has taken the throne after deeming the Prince and Princess illegitimate, with the help of the Queen to fabricate the paternity results. While Cyrus is convinced the Queen is on his side, her majesty has her own agenda in mind: change the succession of the Royal Family and make the power shift to the Queen if anything should happen to yet another King. Meanwhile, Liam vows to bring his father’s murderer to justice and teams up with an unlikely ally to do so, the duplicitous bodyguard Jasper who had been relieved from his duties after sleeping with both the Princess and the Queen, and had once been considered a prime suspect in the King’s attack that led to his death. However, the two young men, who are both working to mend their respective broken hearts, have bonded over their mutual concern for the Princess’ wellbeing and seek to bring a common enemy to justice.

While King Cyrus struggles to win over a country of people who despise him due to his inability to relate and general distain disdain for common society, Eleanor sinks further into despair as she searches to have a real connection with anyone despite her seemingly fairytale life as a princess. Her bodyguard blackmailed her and slept with her mother, her brother is locked in a vengeful tunnel vision, her mother just revealed her father isn’t who she thought, the new King hates her, and the only person who ever believed in her was murdered with the last words he spoke to her being of his disappointment. Now, Eleanor finds solace in excessive amounts of booze, drugs and random sex, while still trying to navigate through the murky waters of real romance. Not since Marie Antoinette has there been so much anarchy in the monarchy.

Lydia Rose Bewley, Andrew Bicknell, Victoria Ekanoye, Poppy Corby-Tuech, Simon Thomas, and Scott Maslen also return for season two. Check out this season 1 recap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kWa2vo-fO0
